There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers (抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment (公寓房间), I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining street-light. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the street.Suddenly I wasnt cold or tired any more, and I ran out of the door and back to where Id heard the noise. Although I searched the street anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the street next to me. When a voice called from the inside, Alisa Camacho? I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes.Is this what youre looking for? he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldnt get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldnt be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.（1）How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work? A . Cold and sick.B .

Do you step on it?When researchers at Tokyo University see a cockroach, they take the remote control and make the cockroach turn around, run left or right, or go forward. These scientists are changing the cockroaches into robots. Each cockroach has a very small pack that has in it a microprocessor(微处理器）.Then researchers can send signals from the remote control to the pack. The signals control the movements of the cockroaches.Why does anyone want to control a cockroach? “Insects can do many things that people cant,” says Isao Shimoyama, head of robot research at Tokyo University. In a few years, he says, these robot insects will carry very small cameras. They will be able to move through earthquake rubble(瓦砾）to look for people or move under doors to find information about someone.This may seem strange, but the Japanese government thinks the research is very important. The government is giving the scientists $ 5 million for this research.First, the researchers breed (培育)hundreds of cockroaches. They use only the American cockroach because it is bigger and stronger than other cockroaches. Then they choose the best cockroaches and remove their wings and antennae(触须）. They put small packs where the antennae were. The packs weigh about three grams, or about two times the weight of the cockroaches themselves. “Cockroaches are very strong,” says Ralph Holzer, who is a researcher at Tokyo University. “They can lift 20 times their own weight. ”With a remote control, the scientists send signals to the packs. When a cockroach gets the signal, it moves. The problem is that the cockroaches dont always move in the right direction.（1）The scientists are changing the cockroaches into robots because _.A . they want cockroaches to do things people cant in the futureB . they want to control the movements of the cockroachesC . they want cockroaches to take photos of the earthquakesD . they want to send signals to the packs on the cockroaches（2）What can cockroaches do to help people?A . They can lift 20 times their own weight.B . They can help people to carry very small cameras.C . They can breed hundreds of cockroaches.D . They can search for those people in rubble after an earthquake.（3）Scientists control cockroaches movements _.A . by removing their wingsB . by sending signals from the remote controlC . by using very small camerasD . by removing their antennae（4）What problem do the rcscarchcrs meet with?A . The cockroachcs sometimes clon;t move.B . The cockroachcs sometimes move in ihc wrong direction.C . The cockroachcs arc too big to move through earthquake rubble.D . The cockroachcs can only lift 20 times their own weight.4. （4分）阅读理解 Do you believe there are aliens? Well, make a phone call and you will know. A group of Americans can help.
